Could or should there be a spot delineating if a bulb is forcible?

I agree, that is a necessary field.

May be under uses?

I woke up in the middle of the night thinking about all my database TODO items and decided to get up and get some of these items knocked off my list.

Is forcible a quality important enough as a "general choice" for bulbs?

I can add "Forcible" to just those two. That might be the right approach.

Yes, that would be great,
Can there be a drop down box next to that option, to fill in additional forcing information for that plant?

I guess in both of these cases, it would go under "Bloom Season" as "Can be forced" and then have a magic text box appear with a place where you can type in details?
